Honey Tips
How Honey is Made
To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.
Directions
Syrup: Remove peel from orange using a vegetable peeler and cut into 1 1/2 inch strips. Save orange for another use. Combine all syrup ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, about 7 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick and star anise but not orange peel. Let syrup cool.
Meanwhile, prepare fruit. Place in a bowl and pour cool syrup over fruit. Refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 8 hours.
